Homemade Applesauce

Homemade Applesauce

In my opinion, jarred applesauce pales in comparison to homemade. Just in time for Chanukah, this applesauce recipe is a requirement for latke eating! Since there are only a few ingredients in apple sauce, the quality of the apples and some fresh squeezed lemon juice is what makes this recipe “just right.”
